Frankfurt / Berlin / Leipzig / Jordan
I’m Omar Tarawneh, a Jordanian interdisciplinary artist based in Frankfurt. I work at the intersection of light, sound, image and movement.
My work moves between installation, scenography, interactive media, music and performance. Using TouchDesigner, LED systems and body tracking, I create environments for theatre, dance and live encounters.
Translation is a recurring thread: from poetry to sound, movement to light, and human intention to a responsive system. My research develops through making, writing, experimentation and collaboration.
I am a collaborator at Higgs Boutique
A scenic installation translating nine poems into performer presence, narration, sound, video, light, objects and spatial experience.
Electronic music producer and partner at Talpa Rec. Founder of B.bahn Music, which hosted bi-weekly events in Frankfurt from 2021 to 2023.
